aFteR
you complete the following
steps to set up the tool for use.
1. The Drill is designed to accept up to 1/2 IN.
standard drill bits. Do not use larger drill bits in
this Drill as damage to the gears and/or motor
may result. Always use a drill bit that is designed
for the specific drilling job. Keep other drill bits
tucked in the Drill Driver’s Bit Groove during use.
2. To “lock” the trigger mechanism as a safety
measure, slide the Direction Switch so that
it is in the “center” position. This will prevent
the drill from turning on accidentally.
3. While holding the ring behind the collar of the
chuck with one hand, rotate the collar of the
Chuck (2) counterclockwise, if needed, and
place the desired drill bit or screw driver bit
into the drill between the Chuck Jaws.
4. Hand tighten the Chuck until the bit is held securely
in place, centered between the Chuck Jaws.
5. Slide the Speed Selector (16) at the top
of the Drill Driver forward and back to
adjust from the lower speed (0-400 RPM)
to the higher speed (0-1200 RPM).
6. Set the desired torque setting by rotating the
Torque Setting Ring (4) to the desired setting.
a. Use the torque setting marked by
the drill icon for drilling.
b. The numbered torque settings from 1 to 23
are for driving screws, bolts and nuts.
• It is recommended that a very low torque
setting be used when first driving small screws
into soft materials. Then adjust the setting
as the proper force required is determined.
• The torque setting required depends on the
item being driven. In the case of screws,
consider the size, length, and type of material.
• If a pilot hole has been drilled into the material,
a lower torque setting will be required.
• In addition to single or double-ended screwdriver
bits, adapters with hexagonal shafts with
matching socket heads can also be used.
• Fix the torque setting low enough
to allow a safety margin.
